Hypocrisy at it's finest. Oppression is so widespread, it pisses me off when people of color can't connect the damn dots and cease to participate in it. You wanna use the term to demean people? Cool, I just don't wanna see you EVER complaining about people using derogatory terms towards blacks.

I didn't know that was a slur hmmm you learn something new every day.. When I as younger I use to live with my uncle who was gay and had transgender friends.. they called people tranny and had no problem with being called that but now that I know...

It seems like using it amongst each other would be different, since they wouldn't have any kind of malice behind it ya know?

yea but it just what I was taught that it just meant tranny = short version of transgender and this was from some transgender fellows

This thread makes my insides weep. I wish a white bish would demand someone to explain to her why she shouldn't call me blacky/mammie/niccer/oreo/tar baby/etc...

I wish a negro would demand that I explain why he shouldn't call me b*tch/hoe/slut/whore/thot/etc.

I wish a able-minded person would demand why they shouldn't call me retarded/slow/crazy/etc.

I really can not with the intolerance in this thread.

Who are you hurting by removing offensive language from your vocabulary?

Who are you hurting if you don't?

The answers should be obvious.

like it

thank you cause I was about to call y'all all types of dense obtuse mothers. entitled assss feeling owed an explanation as to why a group feels oppressed by a word and why they dare deny them their god given right to degrade them. the nerve of those trans folk.
